I am now at 87 291.72$

Interesting gain earns by the TSX today, but the gains aren’t showing up in my non registered stocks and units portfolio! I think its one of the first time this is ever happening to me, that my portfolio is not following the gain of the TSX. Our non registered stocks and units investment portfolio is now at 47 991.39$, a lost of a 311.47$ compare to March 29! A couple of things are going really wrong! Sprott Inc. (SII) is falling… under 4$! Timminco (TIM) is falling… under 1$! Hanwei Energy Services (HE) is falling… under 40 cents! Those are the major issues in our investment portfolio. If only the Sprott Canadian Equity Fund could performed better, it could bring Sprott Inc. (SII) to up to 5$ per stock. Sprott Canadian Equity Fund is doing better, but the fund is not doing better than following the gains of the TSX. At a management fee of 2.5% per year, I am expecting much more coming from the Sprott Canadian Equity Fund. High management fee but poor return. That’s what I had experiment with the Sprott Canadian Equity Fund so far.

Other than some loses and poor results with some so call investment, we experiment some positive gains today, but the gains were not enough to cover the loses, so we finish the day at -311.47$. PGF.UN continue its journey and will probably reach the 12$ per unit very soon. DHF.UN seem to be pretty close to the 18$ per unit. BNS will probably reach 51$ per stock very soon… Some great things are going on in our portfolio. Growing like a pretty little garden.

Our registered investment portfolio (RSP) had done very well, an increase of 110$ compare to March 29. Our mutual funds also earned interesting gain. Since I received a paycheck from my second job today, I add an extra 300$ to my savings section, for a total of 1 002.69$. Without that extra 300$ in savings, I would have been at 86 991.72$... But we have some savings so we now have 87 291.72$ in assets. Not bad isn’t?

Welcome in the house Methanex Corporation (MX) dividend in my online future trading brokerage

I didn’t make any gain today from my non registered stocks and units portfolio. I close the day at 48 060.82$, loosing 242.04$ compare to March 29. It’s not dramatic, I am confident to experiment interesting gain in the upcoming weeks. Hope April will be even better than March. Difficult to believe, but another month is about to start!

I received my Methanex Corporation (MX) dividend today. I had received 15.96$ from Methanex Corporation (MX). This dividend didn’t bring extra stock to our portfolio since Methanex Corporation (MX) is at more than 20$ per stock at this time. For the month of March 2010, I had earned 193.35$ in dividend. The month of March had been quite busy for our investments. I got my RSP loan, borrow 5 000$ to invest in Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN), etc… March had been a great month, I managed myself quite well with my online future trading brokerage. Hope the next several months will be even better.

I have a few other projects on the way. One Web site project had been working on for a little while. On May 30, a 1 000$ I was holding in the Financials GIC Plus RSP will be release. I am hoping for a return on my 1 000$ investment. I just cannot wait to see how much I will earn. I made this 1 000$ investment in the Financials GIC Plus RSP back in 2005. That was 5 years ago! On May 30, I should received at least 1 000$, if not more in my RSP saving account. When the money will be from my RSP saving account, I will transfer the money into my broker account. That amount will be added to the 259.15$ I currently hold in cash in my RSP broker account. But that will only happen in the beginning of early June. Will there any other project before June?

Well, we have that emergency fund that we had fix at 2 000$ that we want to have in our saving account. Its something extremely boring to work on, but I felt its some kind of a necessity, at some point. So we are slowly building an emergency fund of 2 000$ or around it, we’ll see what can be save. We gave ourselves until the month of May, were our RSP loan payment will begin, to match 2 000$ in savings or the closest we can be to it.

It’s pretty much it for the upcoming investment projects. Nothing much. But to do more, I would need more money.

At this point, I am very please with my portfolio. Of course I would like to see my portfolio grow even more. But it’s not like before, it’s not like I am feeling any kind of interior pressure to earn more money to purchase more stocks. So the necessity of searching for a third job is more or less there. I know its silly, but working at 3 jobs at the same time is the only way I find to earn good money without doing anything illegal.

So the question being: should I job search or not? Should we all think about this one.

Happy April fooool.

I am now at 87 087.13$

Today, our non registered portfolio reach 48 302.86$, an increase of 199.95$ compare to March 24! Consequently, we update our portfolio. Our overall portfolio increase of 339.57$, to reach 86 387.14$. To the 86 387.14$ we add 700$ in savings because it bring the overall to more than 87 000$. We really have those savings at this time, if not a bit more. Rent payment is coming soon, but my savings should stabilize later on during the month. I am looking forward for other fabulous increase! I am officially at 87 087.13$ in assets.

And what about our dividend? Let’s update our annual dividend income:

From our non registered investment portfolio:
Sprott Inc. (SII): 507 stocks x 0.16$ = 81.12$
Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS): 105 stocks x 1.96$ = 205.80$
Methanex Corporation (MX): 103 stocks x 0.62$ = 63.86$
Fortis (FTS): 105 stocks x 1.12$ = 117.60$
Pembina Pipeline Income Fund (PIF.UN): 413 units x 1.56$ = 644.28$
Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN): 723 stocks x 1.44$ =

1 041.12$
Yellow Pages Income Fund (YLO.UN): 433 units x 0.804$ = 348.13$
Bell Aliant Regional Communications Income Fund (BA.UN): 100 units x 2.904$ = 290.40$
Pengrowth Energy Trust (PGF.UN): 106 units x 0.84$ = 89.04$
Enbridge Income Fund (ENF.UN): 306 units x 1.152$ = 352.51$
Corby Distilleries (CDL.A): 100 stocks x 0.56$ = 56$
Davis + Henderson Income Fund (DHF.UN): 100 units x 1.836$ = 183.60$
Premium Brands Holdings Corporation (PBH): 200 stocks x

1.176$ = 235.20$
TOTAL: 3 708.66$

From our Tax-free savings account (TFSA) portfolio:

TOTAL: 129.60$

From our RSP portfolio:
EnCana Corporation (ECA): 100 stocks x 0.80$ = 80$
Emera Incorporated (EMA): 200 stocks x 1.132$ = 226.40$
TOTAL: 306.40$

3 708.66$ + 129.60$ + 306.40$ = 4 144.66$ + 100$ from DRIP = 4 244.66$

4 244.66$ / 12 months = 353.73$

353.73$ x 10 months (April-December 2010) = 3 537.22$

87 087.13$ + 3 537.22$ = 90 624.35$

Difficult to realize, but we only have 9 months left to reach our first 100 000.00$!

Nice gain this morning in our non registered investment portfolio

I wake up in much better shape. No more back pain. As for now, our non registered stocks and units investment portfolio is at 48 165.93$ (at 10:30AM exactly). I cheat yesterday on my non expense rule. I will probably cheat again. The 2 000$ in savings was just a number like that up in the air, 1 000$ or even 1 500$ could do just fine, but we’ll see how it goes. Maybe I will look for another job to add more money in. Things were working extraordinary well before the BMO episode. Things will continue to work out for us. I am very happy to see Claymore Gold Bullion ETF (CGL) exceeding the 10$ per unit this morning. We have a chance to hit the 100 000.00$ mark. Things are getting pretty interesting. I am very happy to have more than 10 000$ invested in the Just Energy Income Fund (JE.UN). Would be nice to have one day 10 000$ in all the stocks and units I hold.

Its going to be difficult to see 2 000$ in our saving account without doing anything with it. I would very much to invest in 100 new stocks of Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A) to benefit of its DRIP. Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A) is a good pick of Derek Foster. Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A) value is pretty stable as its stock price seem to remain always around 15.20$-15.30$. This Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A) bring stability to our investment portfolio and we like it. Going to work for now, million things to do. Yesterday was nice because I did all of my laundry and my place is ultra-clean now. Could eat on the floor.
